Yale School of Medicine
Overview
The responsibilities associated with this position include several aspects of preparation, operation, and maintenance of the EM/IF laboratory. It includes processing, embedding, thick sectioning, and thin sectioning of clinical specimens under the supervision of management. This all must be performed while maintaining proper specimen identification and resulting in high-quality slides and micrographs to ensure optimal patient diagnosis and treatment. Responsibilities include also ancillary tasks that support the function and maintenance of the laboratory. Responsibilities
The candidate will routinely hand process and embed specimens for electron microscopy studies. He/She will perform specialized laboratory tests and procedures in electron microscopy (fixation, processing, sectioning, staining, mounting of specimens for analysis in the Electron Microscope). Tests for and ensures quality controls of slides and specimens. The candidate should have the ability to identify important features and structures of histology in tissues and should be able to prepare stock and working solutions of laboratory chemicals, as well as maintaining and ordering supplies. The ideal candidate will be able to provide coverage and support of additional laboratory duties when necessary. This includes processing tissue for Immunofluorescence (freeze, cryo-sectioning, and staining of specimens for analysis in under the IF microscope). The candidate should be familiar with following SOPs and laboratory practices in accordance to state and federal regulations (CAP, OSHA, and JCAHO).
